EVENT LOG PT. 1: The Fourth of July Masquerade Ball

Who: Everyone!
What: John Progress hosts a Fourth of July Ball.
Where: The Adventurer's Club.
When: Fourth of July!
Warnings: Patriotism.



Whew boy, it's the hottest Fourth in July we've had in years! Thankfully, the local nuclear family, The Progresses, are happy to host the annual Fourth of July Ball. Formal dress, patriotic wear, and straight-up costumes are all encouraged. In fact, you'll find the host wandering around in his own George Washington outfit - in fact, it seems as though everyone has turned up for this event! Anyone who's anyone is here, and this could be a good opportunity for you to connect!

...Of course, food and drink are provided. While it might be a little bit too classy for some's taste, there's a barbecue happening outside just in case you need to get away from the stuffiness for a little bit. Generally, it seems as though everyone here is friendly enough, even if the party is a little too classy.

It all seems to be going pretty well, and seems as though you finally have a pretty decent day on your hands...though, those ink splotches you occasionally see on the ground are a little weird.

[Welcome to Progress City's Fourth of July event! We're gradually going to be tagging in to the log with every NPC we've introduced thus far, and plenty that we haven't introduced quite yet! Feel free to set up your own toplevels and tag out, of course - the second part of the event log will be going up on July 10th!]

[Daria grew quiet. Very quiet. You could drop a pin and it would shatter the ear.





It felt kind of. Nice for a moment. A smile crept on her face. She got it now, but it was a long time coming. So, everyone was missing someone. Wendy just wanted to help her now.

She understood.]


Friends here, friends there. You wouldn't let me be hermit, I guess.

[It took some kind, but Wendy always knew what she had to do. Even in an instinctive sort of way.

After all, this was her life for the past year.

Yeah. Trust me, I've had enough of people being sad and staying behind closed doors. And I must've been doing something right so far.

You might've. I could probably give you that much.

[Maybe it felt good to know that someone had her back this much, it was something she seemed to miss each time she was thrown into a situation. Jane might've made her realize how being a loner forever wasn't good for her, but it wasn't really a feeling she wanted to trade.

It took her eighteen years to really feel like she could depend on some people. That was an honor she felt she could give out to only a very few. That was fine. Wendy could be one, if she were to take that.]


Even if you had to pry that door open with a crowbar.

[Wendy was a social creature by nature. She always had a group of friends to pal around with, at least one at all times. Big friend circle, big family. Being alone, it just wasn't in the cards for her, at any point in her life.

Maybe that's why she wanted to help out so much.

Hey, I could totally do that. See these? [She flexes, which doesn't do much since she's wearing a suit, but that isn't the point.] I've punched out more than one person in my time.
